YOU don't use as much
of Calumet as you do of
most other BakitiR Powders.
It has more than ordinary
leavening strength. You
save about half.
You don't pay a big price for
Calumet It'3 sold at a
moderate price that rep
resents another saving.
You don't feel uncertain as
to results. Bakings never
fail because Calumet never falls
below tho proven standard oi "Best
by Test,"
It possesses the
ity ever put into a Uaking
Powder. Contains only such
ingredients as have been offi
cially endorsed by United States
Food Authorities.
For weeks, for months, it
Keeps as fresh and full of
strength as the day it left the
Calumet Factories, the World'3
Larncst, most Sanitary and Modern
Balclng Powder plants. ,
It is Important that you use only
straight wheat flour (not self-rising
Hour) and pure baking powder if
you wish to olitain the gluten de

Another art in tlio direction of

the reduction or the army from Its
prosont basis nl l'J5,000, whero It
lias been kept by the arbitrary ac

175.000. In otic day both houses
Voted to compel lb,- Secretnry to stop

reached the smaller total. General
Pershing i.nd Secretary Baker both
slated that sltci n months would bo
required to bring tlio army down to
such a figure. The IIouso vote on
